In the latest episode of Listen Without Prejudice, Chris Macartney and Mark Chick reflect on the government’s progress since the 21 November ‘24 announcement on leasehold reform. They look at the legislative developments, the consultations that followed, and what’s still missing from the picture.

Since recording the episode, we have had the highly anticipated outcome of the Judicial Review, brought by a group of six leading freeholders and property groups against LAFRA. But with potential appeals still looming, the story is far from over. For now, we take stock of what’s changed, what hasn’t, and what might be next for leasehold reform.
